of fingerprints. here's how the company says it works. it takes three scans of both your index fingers so you can use either one to get in. the image of your fingerprint isn't stored, but instead a computer measures the distance between several points on your print. that measurement is stored and it's combined with an identifying number which comes up every time you place your finger on the reader. so if your p.i.n. and the measurement code match, "24 hour fitness" knows that you are the person you say you are and they let you in. privacy advocates say while on paper "24 hour fitness" is taking the right precautions using fingerprints can lead to identity theft. new test results show california students keep making some progress in english and math even in the face of some deep budget cuts. the state department of education released standardized test data yesterday. 52% of students scored above the proficiency level in english and 48% were above proficiency in math.
